Dick Morris: Obama is going to lose big
dickmorris.com ^ | 04/05/12 | Dick Morris

Posted on 04/05/2012 9:01:40 AM PDT by varmintman

Dick Morris' "Lunch" video this morning involves a claim that a realistic reading of today's polls indicate that Romney (or anybody else other than Rick Santorum more or less) will beat Obama very badly. The basic gist is that Obama needs to be over 50% among likely voters at this point to break even and the fact of his being no better than around 45 spells wipeout in November since the undecideds almost never break for an incumbent under such circumstances.

Morris notes that it's as if marriages were five year contracts with options to renew and somebody were to ask your husband or wife at year four if they were planning on renewing, and they said they'd have to think about it...

If gas prices stay high he will lose many more states, especially rural Midwest states like MI.

The city of Destroyed will have to depopulate a whole lot more between now and November for Romney to have a shot of winning MI. "Obama's Stash" is very popular there.

I don't need this creep to tell me this.

Just what Obama has done on gas prices should make him toast. But even that is not needed. Obama has spit in the face of the white folks that got him elected. A tiny few will be back voting for him due to white guilt but because Obama has divided the races on purpose and basically said those white folks are racists they won't be voting for him again.

Obama, simply put, is a dumbass. He had the greatest opportunity in American history to bring the country together. Instead he has been a punk and a puke. A thug. Obama has been the punk in the hooded jacket walking very closly behind us on a dark street. This is going to cost him dearly. There is a long list of other things that will contribute to his being defeated in a landslide. And it will be a very big landslide. A tsunami that voter fraud will not be able to overcome.

No, I don't need Morris to tell me this. I knew it already.

So I don’t have to feel bad about not voting for the RINO in November?

I'm voting for a conservative.

I wouldn’t take the chance if I were y’all.

I hope Dick Morris is right, but what’s his record.

Vote against Obama.

I agree with the Toe Sucker, but for different reasons.

In the Trayvon Martin case, Obama has lit the fuse on a nationwide race war.

Any voter who is not black realizes that he or she is the target of that war, and will be in serious trouble if the leader of that war were to gain a second term.

So they’ll run screaming to the GOP and vote for a yellow dog, a warm bucket of spit, or perhaps even Mitt Romney.

It’s the Southern Strategy, more wildly successful than Nixon ever dreamed it could be.

It is being said George Soros likes Romney. That means Romney will change nothing Obama has done and will make things worse. We need to elect someone else.

Anyone other than Obama and Romney.

i think obama is the favorite...but, I also think what you say here could end up being relevant:

“Any voter who is not black realizes that he or she is the target of that war, and will be in serious trouble if the leader of that war were to gain a second term.”

obviously that sentiment will not show up clearly in polling anytime soon...SO...there IS a possibility that come mid October, obama could start sinking and it could end up a blow out, ala 1980. That “could” happen.

(Note to Romney: if you end up winning big, it doesn’t mean you are Reagan. It just means that obama is worse than Carter).

Detoilet’s population is down to half what it was, and it is about to be taken over by the state. The unions are going to get gutted in the takeover, more leeches will leave.

Based off the Kerry states won, Obama will struggle with PA and WI. We need to worry about VA, NC, and FL. Not sure about NV, NM, and CO going Red. If we keep those 3 and PA or WI flips + the others hold steady, even Willard can win. Not too big an “if” IMHO.

The sentiment is out there now. Wait until they start burning Detroit, Philly and Baltimore this summer.
Not to mention the neo-hippie antics of Occupy Wall Street.

I still chuckle about Morris and his toe sucking incident.
The woman who was involved was not only from Pittsburgh....she was from the exact neighborhood in Pittsburgh were, when I was a kid, you used to go cruising if your intentions were to meet a girl like that.

I take it he’s not accounting for the third-party spoiler by which Obama can win with a plurality.

Vote against Obama.

Did that last time. And dangit.. he still won.

One thing I really appreciate about the FR experience is the centralization of valuable, pertinent information. At one time, admittedly out of ignorance, I was 50/50 about Romney. But the wealth of information that has since flowed in here has convinced me that beneath that carefully arranged wool disguise is a liberal wolf anxious to spring out into full view. The man is full of more sh*t than a Christmas goose, and those conservative-flavored soundbites are simply rehearsed garbage.

I'm convinced. Voting for Romney is one.. BAD.. idea.

Moreover, many people who say they are leaning to Obama are just giving the politically correct answer

Remember how we had that hope back in 2008, i.e. the hoped-for, but nonexistent "Bradley Effect?"

That ought to be one of those mindless chants i.e. “One-two-three-fo’ comrade “O” has got to go!”

The crabby “principled” Freepers and the Soros brigade have shown up. They enthusiastically agree that we are going to get four more years of Our Beloved Leader. I can’t go along with that. As a doctor, I do not first kill my patient in order to save him. Obama is killing America, aided and abetted by communists and Freepers.
